      Good neoteny is forward slant to the face, near perfect symmetry, small nose and mouth, and a head to body scale of one to five.

      The point is that most people cannot differentiate faces by descriptions well. There is a lot of translation involved between all the faces they know and those words. Facial recognition is much faster than word recognition in the mind. With strangers that have separate motivations and priorities, it is nearly impossible to effectively communicate this.
